If you search for Tronster you will find there is another one out there on the Internet. I have checked out the other Tronster. Alas, this is about me, not the other.
I have written about my Navy years once, maybe twice, already. One thing I mention was the nicknames we give to each other. It has to do with your personality and the personalities of the people you serve with in the military. I was an electronics technician when I served. Mainly working on radio communications equipment. I was a pretty good technician. (I like to think so anyway) My first name shares a few of the letters. They called me "Tronster". All Electronic Technicians were referred to as "twidgets". I think its because we worked on all the widgets that did not belong to any other group on the ship.
I kept the nickname for years. I am a little bit of a geek, but never really watched the movie "Tron". I have seen the newest one, and it was pretty cool to watch.
Some of my other nicknames, "Shade Tree", I picked up towards the end of my service. However, Tronster was the one that stuck.
Keep up the good work on the A to Z Challenge folks.

This is the other Tronster ( http://tronster.com ) ; would love to meet the one, other consistent Tronster on the internet. Hit me up, let's grab coffee; I think we're only a city or 2 away from each other.
